God Maker Quotes

“We’re foolish, idealogical creatures at 18. We have no idea what we want out of life, but it’s the time when we’re the most sure that we do. It’s almost comical; never again will you be so thoroughly convinced of something based on so little experience. Which is why we make impetuous decisions, life-altering decisions we later come to regret. Because we’re so sure, and then so surprised at how wrong we were. Surprised and angry, really, because everyone else was right. And if there’s anything universally true about youth, it’s that we resent the absence of experience and wisdom that others have accumulated before us. We want to stubbornly believe we were born with that wisdom, like it’s an inherent trait, and we can’t stand the idea that everyone else watches us stumble without it.”
― Dom Testa, God Maker
